Diedrichshagen village church
The village church Diedrichshagen in the north-west Mecklenburg municipality of Rüting has a late Gothic tower from the 15th century. The ship is an elaborate neo-Gothic brick building from the mid-19th century.
history
Diedrichshagen was mentioned in the Ratzeburg tithe register as early as 1230 . The first church in Diedrichshagen was built with the village between 1230 and 1260. It was included in the wine donation from Duke Heinrich the Pilgrim (1267) and was initially under the Archdeaconate of Rehna Monastery . At a time not known in detail, the patronage passed to the Eldena monastery after 1291 and remained there until its secularization in 1556.
Building history
Of the church, which stood in the village in the 15th century, only the 60-meter-high square three-storey west tower has been preserved. To the west it has a simple return portal. The masonry ends with four shield gables, which are adorned with different tracery. The eight-sided pointed helmet rises above it. With this high pyramid roof , like the tower of the nearby Proseken village church , it refers more to the Nikolaikirche in Wismar (whose gable fields are ornamented completely differently), but above all to numerous models in Lübeck and Holstein . To date the tower, Friedrich Schlie refers to its oldest known bell from 1451.
Today's brick building of the ship has a cruciform floor plan and a choir with a 5/8 end . Typical of the neo-Gothic, it is designed in more detail than medieval village churches (not only) in this region. It was built in 1858–1861 as one of the first according to the Mecklenburg church building regulations by Theodor Krüger on a cross-shaped floor plan and consecrated in 1861. The church is now a listed building.
Furnishing
Inside the neo-Gothic church, apart from a panel painting and stained glass, no furnishings from the previous church from 1601 have survived. The four stained glass are installed in the choir with depictions of the birth and baptism of Christ, Emmaus and coat of arms.
organ
The organ was built in 1861 by Friedrich Friese III from Schwerin on the west gallery. The neo-Gothic prospect based on a design by the Schwerin building councilor Theodor Krüger consists of five pipe fields and two large outer fields. The transverse flute, installed in 1899 by the Hagenower organ builder Marcus Runge instead of a mixture, was repaired in 2001 by the organ builder Wolfgang Nussbücker from Plau am See.
The slider chests -instrument has eight registers on a manual , the pedal is attached.

Bells
The church still had its three old bells until the First World War. According to its inscription, the smallest was made in 1653 by the traveling founders “M. STEFANEVS WOILLO VND NIKOLAVS GAGE ”from Lorraine and shows, according to Friedrich Schlie,“ pretty Renaissance decorations ”. It is the only one of the old bells that has survived; the two larger bells fell victim to both world wars. In 1988 the church received a new middle bell that was cast by Schilling in Apolda . As a replica of the bell from 1451, it is not functional.
altar
A neo-Gothic interior is the altar wall, in the middle of which there is a crucifixion painting by Pauline Steinhäuser (1809–1866) from 1863.
A sound cover with a tracery tower is located above the neo-Gothic pulpit.
